Story

This April I am running the London Marathon! I have decided to raise money for PODS (Parents Opening Doors), a charity who support children, young people and their families who have special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).

Your contribution will make a significant impact by funding an accessible activity holiday for children and young people. Many of them rarely have the opportunity to enjoy such experiences. By supporting, you are helping create moments of joy and memories that will last a lifetime.

Any donations are greatly appreciated!

About the charity

PODS is a parent carer/peer led charity with staff and volunteers who have the relevant ‘real life’ experience to support families who have a child with a disability or additional need (aged 0 – 25 years). Parent participation is at the heart of the forum, as parent carers can pinpoint problems frequently experienced by families with disabled children. This knowledge is useful to professionals in helping to improve how children’s services are delivered so they better meet families’ needs. PODS continues to ensure communication links exist between these families and the strategic decision makers. PODS also have a Befriender Scheme to help support parent carers who need it, they are supported by one-to-one befrienders in their home. A much larger number of parent carers can access emotional and practical support at the family groups, where experiences can be shared.
